The IAAPI trade show in Mumbai, India, got off to a very slow start, on Tuesday of this week, according to visitors.

A severe lack of foot-traffic was causing some dismay to exhibitors at the World Trade Centre.

Alberto Borrero of Intercard said: “It is very, very slow. I have spoken with other exhibitors and there is the same comment.”  Prakash Vivekanand of ASI, said: “Footfall has been sad. We probably had more business interaction with other exhibitors than with visitors.”
